Pros

The people. The front line and team managers have a tough job and want the best for their customers. They care about each other too.

Cons

Senior management and Walsall have a very negative view of Preston and its people. The blame for failing SLA is always, wrongly blamed on front line and team managers. It continues to run on incorrect AHT that does not take into account numerous manual processes, constant failing IT systems and complaints as a result of engineers not attending. Engagement has plummeted and the recent Employee Engagement survey results are not being shared as a result To allow 50 plus years experience walk out of the door just before winter was a very poor and misjudged decision.

HomeServe Response

Thank you for taking the time to post a review and for recognising the your former colleagues at HomeServe – I agree with your view that everyone is willing to go above and beyond for our Customers and that is something very special. We share the results of all our surveys, in fact, I’m currently in the process of sharing interim survey results now. We do this because we’re committed to listening to our People, learning from, and acting upon the feedback. To be honest though, there isn’t a great deal I agree with in your review so I don’t think it serves much purpose to respond point by point. It is really good insight though and I’m glad you still care. Hope all is well and working out for you. Gareth Hanmer, Director of Quality

Pros

Great exposure and a chance at a full time offer if you make the internship count.

Cons

Definitely a learning curve as with any company so you need to speak up and ask questions.
